<title>Manage volumes</title>
<para>A volume is a detachable block storage device, similar to a
USB hard drive. You can attach a volume to only one instance.
To create and manage volumes, you use a combination of nova
and cinder client commands.</para>
<para>This example creates a volume named
<literal>my-volume</literal> based on an image.</para>
<procedure>
<title>To list volumes</title>
<step>
<para>To determine which image to use for your volume,
list images:</para>

<para>From the output, you can see that the volume is
attached to the server with ID

is in the nova availability zone, and is
bootable.</para>
</step>
<step>
<para>To delete your volume, you must first detach it from
the server.</para>
<para>To detach the volume from your server, pass the
server ID and volume ID to the command, as
follows:</para>
